"On the plus side, I got a new character I think people are going to love." - Henry Stein This article may contain unmarked details of spoilers. If you wish not to read without spoiling yourself, play the game, watch the cartoon, or read the book first, depending on the article's topic. See Ink (disambiguation) or Machine (disambiguation) for other related uses.
The Ink Machine is Joey Drew Studios' purchased machinery from the Bendy Franchise. The massive ink-powered machine was installed by the cartoon studio's owner Joey Drew and the Gent Company to create living entities for the animation company.[1] Wally Franks was the only person allowed to be the attendant to the Ink Machine.[2][3] It is also the main plot device that's triggering many events because of the ink that flows through the machine. General DescriptionAppearanceThe machine is large, square, and robust in shape. Its outside is made up of several pipes, gears, pistons, and other attachments. A giant metal barrel filled with ink is connected to the rear of the machine. There is a large nozzle connected to its front, along with long, sprawling pipes underneath. The machine is also portable, being risen up and down the studio by several large, heavy chains. FunctionsIt becomes apparent that the Ink Machine functions similar to a 3D printer, in which it turns 2D sketches into realistic, physical models. Later on, the Ink Machine becomes enchanted by mysterious circumstances so that it can create living cartoon characters out of living souls. Joey Drew wanted to bring cartoons into the real world using the Ink Machine, starting with Bendy, but the process of it went wrong and caused a corrupted version of Bendy to be born. HistoryEarly HistorySammy Lawrence mentions that the Ink Machine was installed by Joey Drew from the time when Sammy recorded his first tape, and it started leaking, causing the stairwell to get flooded by ink over three times the month prior afterwards preventing Sammy and other workers from entering and exiting the Music Department. The progress report of Thomas Connor to the Gent Home Office reveals that the original purpose of the machine is to use the cartoons as a template to mold life-size figures of the cartoons. Dreams Come to LifeThe Ink Machine was stolen by Joey Drew from its creator Thomas Connor (Tom) after the creation of Ink Bendy. Joey was enraged by the soulless creature and how people would react to the creature, to the point of belittling and firing Thomas for it, before subsequently firing Allison Pendle for siding against Joey Drew's selfish judgment, though not before condemning her for disrespecting his wishes.
